Study I consisted of a meta-analysis of decoding accuracy of discrete emotions (anger, fear, happiness, love-tenderness, sadness) within and across cultures. READ MORE

  4. 2. Speciation genomics : A perspective from vertebrate systems

    Author : Nagarjun Vijay; Jochen. B.W Wolf; C. Alex Buerkle; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : evolution; speciation; genomics; vertebrate; adaptation; selection; linked selection; crow; killer whale; hybrid zone; transcriptomics; population genetics; behaviour; colouration; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

    Abstract : Species are vital entities in biology. Species are generally considered to be discrete entities, consisting of a group of (usually interbreeding) individuals that are similar in phenotype and genetic composition, yet differ in significant ways from other species. READ MORE

  5. 3. Distributed Coordination in Multiantenna Cellular Networks

    Author : Rasmus Brandt; Mats Bengtsson; Joakim Jaldén; Ignacio Santamaría; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; multicell MIMO; base station clustering; coordinated precoding; branch and bound; coalitional game theory; intercluster interference; CSI acquisition; hardware impairments; discrete rate selection; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Wireless communications are important in our highly connected world. The amount of data being transferred in cellular networks is steadily growing, and consequently more capacity is needed. This thesis considers the problem of downlink capacity improvement from the perspective of multicell coordination. READ MORE

  7. 5. Towards strategic development of maintenance and its effects on production performance : A hybrid simulation-based optimization framework

    Author : Gary Linnéusson; Amos H. C. Ng; Tehseen Aslam; Daniel Tesfamariam Semere; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strategic development; maintenance behavior; maintenance management; sustainable change; tradeoff optimization; system dynamics; discrete event simulation; problem structuring; multi-objective optimization; decision support; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

    Abstract : Managing maintenance in manufacturing within an economical short-termism framework and taking the consequential long-term cost effects into account is hard. The increasing complexity of managing maintenance and its impact on the business results calls for more advanced methods to support long-term development through effective activities in the production system environment.
